Source: Make: DIY Projects and Ideas for Makers
What is your job?
I work as a mechanical engineer where I design and build prototypes for a range of different product types mostly around the restaurant industry.
How did you get started making?
As a kid I was always fascinated by how things were build and all the parts that go into it.
A couple of years later I made my first real project, a lamp made from a stack of old CD’s, I saw an image like that on the internet and just had to make it. But it was a few years later when I really started making.
It was the summer break after my first year of engineering college. Again inspired by something I found online I designed and build a gyroscopic watch winder, all in my living room with some basic hand-tools. From that point on I always had at least one project in progress, especially in the exam periods I often made things, I guess it was a way to relax for me.
